Our Guestbook
“ We had our Valentines Day dinner at the restaurant and the restaurant was completely packed. Food was exceptionally good but kitchen was running behind and food was taking a long time to come out. We were constantly being informed about the delay and had our drinks comped. But at the end of the dinner Brian the manager at the restaurant didn’t let us pay anything for the dinner and took care of it all. He made our Anniversary Dinner special and unforgettable, we appreciate the grand gesture and thank the whole team and especially Brian. ”
“ Excellent dining experience. From the beginning, our hostess Alex made us feel welcomed.Veal meatballs as our starter followed by gnocchi and lasagna were well balanced. Don’t skip the noble bread,it’s delicious. ”
“ Fat Ox is an outstanding dining experience! The ambiance is stylish yet comfortable, and the service is top-notch. Every dish is crafted with care—fresh pasta, perfectly cooked meats, and bold, delicious flavors. The cocktails and wine selection are also excellent. A must-visit in Scottsdale! ”
“ Fat Ox is a beautiful restaurant that has upscale Italian food and a very nice restaurant for all occasions. The staff is super friendly and will have amazing recommendations for you. One thing I enjoyed was ordering all of our meal at once and the chef sending out the meal in waves. I loved the handmade pastas, these are a great first course following appetizers. The size isn’t too large so they don’t fill you up but add a lot of flavor. The Garganelli had an amazing black truffle butter sauce and the pasta was light and held the flavor well. The scallops were another hit for me, these were served with a delicious guanciale sofrito and clam crema that complimented the fish perfectly. My girlfriend and I thought the Caesar salad we ordered here as a starter was one of the best Caesar’s we have had in a long time! Great visit to the Fat Ox! ”

“ You have to try the Cesar salad. I highly recommend going with a large group and ordering every pasta so you can try them all. Also, if you go in the fall or spring, request a table on their patio! ”
“ Fat Ox is a must-visit in Scottsdale! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is upscale yet welcoming. The service is impeccable—attentive without being overbearing. Every dish we tried was incredible, but the handmade pastas truly steal the show. Bold flavors, perfect textures, and beautiful presentation. The Cacio e Pepe and Agnolotti are FIRE ”
“ Fantastic dining experience! The atmosphere was energetic all evening, the service was incredible, and the food was insanely delicious. Came here with another couple and everything we ordered was phenomenal. Our server gave us great recommendations and advised which items would be good to share for the table and how to best order a wide assortment so everyone could try a little bit of everything. I’m glad we made reservations early because it filled up very quick. Can’t wait to come back! ”
